\"10338291_10152506334045519_7827083766749266876_n\"<\/a>Liz Hall has graced the Niche Award’s finalist and winner pages several\u00a0times in the past in addition to being\u00a0one of the very few polymer artists to gain a place as\u00a0a Saul Bell award finalist.\u00a0I do wonder how they determine what category her work goes in. She creates in both metal clay and polymer, combining both for an original and truly stunning effect.<\/p>\n

Liz was a first place\u00a0Niche Award winner in 2014, but since we featured that bracelet set at the time, I thought I’d share a new favorite set of mine. How beautiful are the colors and the shimmer here? The colors are dazzling and the mosaic\u00a0insets are organically set, but there is still this contained feel to the design thanks to the beautiful, even construction in the silver that frames the polymer and overall finish.<\/p>\n

Looking through Liz’s most recent\u00a0work is always delightful. The gallery on her website<\/a> is just so full of beautiful things, but you can also find her latest work posted on her Facebook page<\/a>. Of course, if you fancy her work for yourself, be sure to put her Etsy shop<\/a> on your Christmas list!<\/p>\n
